As part of the campaign, I received the full-sized products pictured above to sample. I received a concealer, eyeliner and three shades of lip balm. Now that I've been using the products for a while, I can give my honest opinion of them.
Neutrogena® Nourishing Eyeliner
From the product guide:
- Built-in sharpener and smudger create your perfect look, from precise definition to smoky effect
- Glides on smooth and wears all day; won't smudge or fade
- Dermatologist & ophthalmologist tested
- 4 shades: Cosmic Black, Brushed Pewter, Spiced Chocolate, Twilight Blue
- Retail price $7.99
My take:
This is by far my most favorite product from the line! It so super easy to use and just glides on. I think liner gives your eyes a dramatic but instantly opens them up. It really does last long and the built-in smudger/sharpener are genius!
I like to line the inner rim of my eyes instead of the outside - it makes them pop a bit more so I hate eyeliners that are stiff and make my eyes watery. The only liner I've found that (besides the fluidliner from MAC) that is this easy to use, is one from Tarte cosmetics which is twice as expensive. This liner does just what my Tarte liner does at half the price! I'm thrilled to have found this and have already purchased one for several of my family members.

Neutrogena Healthy Skin® Brightening Eye Perfector
From the product guide:
- Instantly brightens, conceals dark circles, and evens tone
- Flow-through brush allows for flawless coverage on-the-go
- Clinically shown to reduce the appearance of under-eye puffiness and dark circles
- Broad spectrum SPF 20
- 4 shades: Fair, Buff, Light, Medium
- Retail price $13.99
My take:
My second favorite product! It's a concealer that also doubles as a brightener. As a night owl, I've always had dark circles under my eyes and very few concealers actually cover them up. The concealer I absolutely love is pricey - $70 - but does a bang up job of concealing my circles. So how does Neutrogena compare? Like a CHAMP!!! With just a little bit of product, I've got concealed dark circles and bright eyes that make me look awake no matter how tired I am.
If you're a make up junkie, I'm sure you're familiar with the YSL Touche Eclat. I absolutely love this radiance pen but have always felt it'd be a holy grail item for me if it concealed better. Now, with the Neutrogena Brightening Eye Perfector, I get the effect I want in one product at one third the cost of both products I'm currently using. WIN!

Neutrogena® Revitalizing Lip Balm
From the product guide:
- Sheer, silky formula gives a hint of color
- Exclusive ion2complex™ instantly moisturizes lips
- SPF 20
- 6 shades: Sheer Shimmer, Healthy Blush, Sunny Berry, Petal Glow, Soft Caramel, Fresh Plum
- Retail price $8.99
I wouldn't necessarily say that I hated these lip balms but they weren't as awesome as I'd hoped. I mean they do a good job of keeping my lips moisturized but they felt sticky and weird on my lips. The SPF is nice but I think there are better products out there that moisturize much better.
I received Healthy Blush, Sunny Berry and Petal Glow. The colors were very pigmented with Healthy Blush and Sunny Berry being much more colorful than I expected. Petal Glow was the most subtle of the colors and was nice for days when I just wanted a pop of color without going overboard. I probably won't be buying any of these.
FINAL VERDICT:
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the eye liner and concealer and will definitely be buying those again. Thank you, BzzAgent for giving me this campaign! It was AWESOME!!!
